Netflix launches Max PS3 to simplify viewer experience

Netflix has just launched Max, a feature created by the team behind trivia-game series You Don't Know Jack, which helps viewers decide what to watch on the service.

Max delivers suggestions in a variety of ways based on genre, actors, content, or on your viewing history. The presentation is comical and game-like, with Max as a speaking but unseen character, putting it's heritage clearly on display.

The relevance of the feature's name comes from the it's slogan, "Get the max from Netflix."

You can take a look at Max in action below, in a video from Netflix's YouTube channel.
